WOMEY As COLLECTORS.

Mr. Carlylc's philosophy of clothes was dc
signed for men rather than for women. One
Of his first principles was the abstract idea
that clothes were invented for the sake Of
decoration and ornament rather than warmth
and dcccncy. His learned professor discovered
in tattooing and painting among wild bar
harians evidences Of a spiritual ycarnlng for
decoration which subsequently gave rise to a
desire for clothes and opened the way for dis
tinctions. individuality. social pohty and civil
izaton Mr. Carlyle was not so ungallant a
to suggest that barbarous instinct for per
sonal decoration was at the bottom of womcn's
desire for new clothes. His was a philosophy
Of tailoring rather than drsSmaking and mil.
lincry. He reserved wOmcn's wardrobcs and
accumulations Of fncry for the researches Of
another generation. Possibly the learned
Tcufclsdr6ckh Of the future will find the solu
ton Of this mystery in a strange Transaction
which has recently occurred in Paris.
A French lady of distinction. who recently
died in that city, left behind so great stock
Of apparel that her executors dcspaircd Of dis
posing Of it among large circle Of relatives
and acquaintanccs. They had a complete in

TILE TICTORI1N JEBILEE.

The Victorian Jubilee has been more freely
advertised than any other anniversary OF the
century Three years ago the Queens sub
jects were engaged in high controversy re
spccting the year which should be chosen
whether 1886. which marked the beginning OF
her ffticth year on the throne, should he pre-
fcrrcd, or whether June 20, 1887, should he
celebrated as the GROWING day Of her wonder
full reign. The beginning OF the hfty-hiSt
wear was finally selected after much discussion
and argument From that time Englishmcn
save never ceased to hear Of H., coming Juhl-
lee. A hundred different methods OF comment
Grating the event were proposed and rejected
before the Prince Of Wales suggested the
founding of an Imperial Institute devoted to
India and the Colonies. This scheme was re-
ccivcd at first with fulsomc praise as prac-
teal solution Of the question. An Imperial
Museum and Exhibition devoted TO India and
the Colonies would he a permanent record Of
the commercial progress of the Empire since
1897: and the abstract fitness of this memorial
of the Greater Britain which has been either &C
ouircd or developed during the Queens reign
could not be disputed. The subscriptions 10

Professor Huxley began to cast doubt upon the
real utility of the Institute even under Wise

Then sprang up thousand other projects for
celebrating the anniversary in manner worthy
of its historic importance. The Jubilee Day
is now close at hand. and the three years dis

The most curious thing about the Irish
Land bill is that the Conservatives should have
proposed it and that the Irish should oppose 1t.
Practically it carries out the Plan OF Cam

lords from getting their rent. This the bill
accomplishes, by letting every tenant VINO
thinks he can't pay up seek refuge In mo
bankruptcy court and thereby have his rcla'
tions to his landlord rcadjustcd. Now the
number Of courts in Ireland is limited, while
tho tenants count up several hundreds OF thou

would get anything at all from their estates.
